Well all good things must come to an end - dropped the ute off at CEVA in Adelaide, we decided to ship it home and fly rather than drive across there again, we fly to Perth in the morning


Total of 9042 km , we averaged 10.2172 litres per 100km or 27.65 mpg .

Nothing wrong with your tune that’s very good. Brian and Greg probably got bout the same with their injected v8s whereas we prolly using as much as you for 2/3 the number of km.

That was a great road trip with good economy to boot

Monster effort Blacky,

I can understand the offload, it would be nice to just sit back and reflect on the 30 days gone by.

Its quite amazing that there were so many people offering assistance when needed, it could have been so much worse !

Anyway the count down begins !

Stephen and Clay - Be interesting to see what effect removing the twins and fitting the Weber will do to the fuel economy - once the ute is back I will chuck it on and give it a go purely out of curiosity.


Greg - we were very lucky with when and where we had issues- the FB/EK family is awesome but not everywhere ....

My take is that if the carb is tuned correctly the consumption won’t really vary much.

Yeah, but the induction noise on the Weber will speak to him in Mario’s voice;

This is-a Mario Kart. Putta yo foot into it, Blackie.



The Italians make a very fine carburettor.
